Detectives have charged a 38-year-old Cranbourne man and 50-year-old Chadstone woman after an alleged burglary in Chadstone yesterday.

Three people allegedly climbed onto the roof of a closed restaurant on Warrigal Road and forced entry into the premises at about 12.30pm.

Stonnington Crime Investigation Unit detectives understand they refused to come out and police negotiated with them before a man and a woman were arrested.

The 38-year-old Cranbourne man has been charged with burglary, attempted theft, going equipped to steal, possessing a controlled weapon, possessing a drug of dependence and committing an indictable offence whilst on bail.

He will appear at Moorabbin Magistrates’ Court later today.

A 50-year-old Chadstone woman has been charged with burglary, attempted theft, going equipped to steal and trespass.

She has been bailed to appear at Moorabbin Magistrates’ Court on 12 October.

Police believe another man fled the scene on foot.

The investigation remains ongoing.
